Do I Qualify for Social Security Disability?

To qualify for SSD benefits, you generally need to:

Show that in the past 10 years you have had at least 20 quarters of work, unless you are under 30 years of age

Show that it is likely that you will be unable to be gainfully active for at least one year

In order to determine eligibility, the Social Security Administration will look at your employment history and the types of jobs you have done. They will also take into consideration any transferable skills that could be used in other occupations … your age, and the nature of your impairment and your education.

How Do I Obtain Benefits?

If you would like to apply for SSD benefits, contact our firm. We will evaluate your situation and advise you on the merit of your claim. If you are eligible, the steps are as follows:

Preparation and filing an application, including development of information from doctors and other pertinent evidence.

An examination by Social Security doctors. We can help prepare you for this phase.

Waiting for denial or approval of your application. This can take several months.

If your claim is denied, the next step is to request a hearing before an administrative law judge.

Preparation for testimony at the hearing and a written summary argument to the judge.

Attend the hearing and await a final decision.
